A melting or boiling point is coded in 63 to 65.The rest of the card provides space for the private use ofindividual laboratories and the identification of the source ofthe coded data.

Thus, a band at 18.57 m is coded as 8.6.7.3 To indicate the range of data covered by the spectro-gram, an “x” code is coded for each column that codes as

39、pectral range where no data are available. This is to distin-guish such regions from those in the spectrogram that havebeen examined and found to contain no bands of sufficientintensity to code, or to mark those regions where the spectraldata are obscured by strong solvent bands. Additionally, a “y”

40、code is added to each column that indexes a very strong band.The coding of such strong bands is limited to a very few,usually about three, which may be expected to persist in thespectrum of a considerably diluted sample of the material. Useof such codes may be made in the analysis of mixtures wherei

41、ndividual components may be present in relatively low con-centrations so that only the strongest bands are readily detect-able.8. Criteria for the Selection of Bands to be Coded8.1 Experience has shown that it is not desirable to code allof the bands of most spectra. Major and medium strength bandsa

42、re coded to identify the compounds uniquely. However,coding of too many weak bands minimizes the effectiveness ofnegative searching, which is valuable for mixtures. Therefore,the selection of which bands to code and which to omit requiressome judgment; and because of the nature of publishedspectrogr

43、ams, the judging can be guided only by rather flexiblerules. Several factors enter into the determination of thestrength of an absorption band, and what may be a good set offactors for the production of an excellent spectrogram from onematerial is not necessarily a good set to provide a spectrogramf

44、rom another material. Moreover, the quality of publishedspectra varies widely and any system of coding absorptionbands must allow for making the best possible use of all suchdata.8.2 As a general rule, bands selected to be coded have anabsorbance ratio with the strongest band in the spectrogram of1:

45、10 or more. This means that when the strongest band hasbetween 1 and 5 % transmittance, bands are coded which have70 % or less transmittance as measured from a reasonablyadjacent background (not necessarily at 100 % transmittance);or if the strongest band is between 5 and 20 % transmittance,bands ar

46、e coded which have 80 % or less transmittance asmeasured from a reasonably adjacent background. Thus, to becoded, a band stands out from its adjacent background, at leaston one side, by 20 to 30 % transmittance on the chart.Therefore,“ shoulders” and weak bands on the sides of strongbands are not co

47、ded. Likewise, bands whose percent transmit-tance may be as low as 60 to 50 as read from the chart, butwhich extend from backgrounds having transmittance values of80 to 70 %, are not coded. Some examples are provided in Fig.2.8.3 Searching absorption band data is much the same ascoding the bands. Fi

48、rst, the spectrogram of the unknownmaterial should have its strongest bands between 1 and 20 %transmittance since it is to be compared with data coded on thatbasis. Then one proceeds by two different methods dependingupon whether the unknown is a single component or is amixture of two or more compon

49、ents in roughly equivalentamounts. In the former case, positive searching on the bands isin order, while the latter case requires that negative inputs beincluded in the search request. Each method is discussedbriefly in Sections 9 and 10.8.4 The optimum combination of searching techniques de-pends upon the computer algorithm used. Instructions specificfor each program should be followed.59. Positive Searching for Individual Spectra9.1 In this method, the search data are selected with theexpectation that all or most of the bands in the unknownspectrogram are c
